Ilmac Conference Day 1: «Latest Advances in (Semi-) Non-targeted Analysis»

The symposium offers insights into (semi-)non-targeted methods in analytical sciences and their specific applications in food chemistry.

Non-targeted analysis (NTA) encompasses a rapidly evolving set of mass spectrometry techniques aimed at characterizing the chemical composition of complex samples, identifying unknown compounds, and/or classifying samples, without prior knowledge regarding the chemical content of the samples.

In recent years non-target-screening has developed from basic research into a promising tool for analytical scientists with a wide range of applications. In the morning session renowned experts show latest advances of these methods in material science, laboratory medicine, water and agricultural research. The afternoon session will focus on specific applications in food chemistry, such as general spectra interpretation, non-target, and semi-non-target contaminant search like PFAS.
